Surnames: Hicks, Emmerich Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Cei.2ACEB/3221.1.1.1 Message Board Post: If this helps, I have a William Henry Hicks in my family line who was born Sep. 1835 and died Feb. 1892. I do not know where he was born or died but his father, John Richard Hicks, was born in Maryland and died in Illinois. His mother, Catherine Emmerich, was born in Pennsylvania. Let me know if this matches. Thanks, Ric
